  • Title: ACMI competency standards for midwives--what they mean for your practice.
    Author: Glover P.
    Journal: Aust Coll Midwives Inc J; 1999 Sep; 12(3):12-7. PubMed ID: 10754816.
    Abstract:
    The introduction of the Australian College of Midwives Inc (ACMI) Competency Standards for Midwives in late 1998, has implications for every midwife in Australia. This paper will provide a brief history of the development of nursing and midwifery competencies in Australia, examine what the competencies mean for practice and suggest ways that the competencies can be used for assessment. It is well to remember that the competencies must be considered in context and midwifery legislation and education form a triad for the implementation and use of the competencies.
